Concept Work

These are character sheets I illustrated for my senior thesis project. All of these character concepts are based on descriptions from the Throne of Glass series books, similar to how I saw them. A few concept storyboards for the film are below as well.

Average girl with gold-blonde hair and golden eyes. Her ears are slightly pointed. Donning a deep red cloak that acts as a cape, cool-themed shirt, gauntlets, and pants, as well as a sword belt and boots. Her hair is braided and to the side. She wields fire in her right hand.

Average girl with gold-blonde hair and golden eyes. Her ears are slightly pointed. Donning a deep red cloak that acts as a cape, cool-themed shirt, gauntlets, and pants, as well as a sword belt and boots. Her hair is braided and to the side. There are several views of her – a ¾ view, two back views, and an emotional view. She is looking at us intently. Her swords are displayed – two twin swords of dark silver, and one longsword of gold and ruby.

Tan and built male with snow-white hair. He looks at us with a determined expression. He wears a forest-green cloak with eyes to match. Underneath is a black shirt. On his back he carries two twin blades, the handles are peeking over his shoulders.

white tailed hawk

Tall, built male wearing pale armor with gauntlets, a burnt orange under-shirt, and brown pants, boots, and sword belt. He dons long hair half up – his ears slightly pointed. His sword is displayed at the side – a brown hilt and silver blade.

Tan, slim girl with pine-green eyes and matching shirt. Dark hair that is half-up and thrown behind her shoulders. Standing next to her is an average-sized mythical snow leopard, almost half of the girl’s height.

Slim girl wearing a cool, long dress, complete with long sleeves, her shoulders exposed. Her hair is long and silver, a simple crown adorns her head, her eyes matching its color.

Tall, lanky, pale, demon-creature. He is standing like a human, and wears a dark robe/cloak with a hood covering his head. His fingers peek out of his sleeves, long and sharp, like pointed knives. A smug smile graces his face – his eyes of deepest darkness, barely any light shines there. Around his throat sits a dark collar, of deeper dark still.

Pale woman with long purple dress on and thick purple top armor – wielding dark magic in her left hand. Side view reveals her with hands behind her back. Wearing heels and has a slit in her dress. Also wearing a dark crown, donning purple lips and eyes.

Black background with sketches arranged in rows and columns. Heroine before, during, and after battle. Facing villains – dark demons. Finding an amulet from a goddess. A strong character moves out of the shadows. Heroine discovers her powers of fire magic, uses them for good against the evil. Heroine holding swords.
